Karl Bohm was one of this century's great Mozart conductors--a fact that's apt to be forgotten in the flood of authentic instrument productions, many of them on DG's associated labels. He conducted Mozart with real love and affection, maintaining moderate tempos, allowing each work's gorgeous melodies a chance to sing and breathe. Mozart's symphonic music has its roots in the opera house, and so did Bohm. Listening to the witty woodwind interjections in the finale of Symphony No. 39, for example, you can readily imagine the witty exchanges of different characters in one of Mozart's comic operas. These beautifully recorded versions of Mozart's greatest symphonies belong in the collection of every fan of the composer. --David Hurwitz

Excellent readings of the last six symphonies..........2007-03-09

I was listening to these again last night and I have to say, Bohm knows his Mozart. Then again, so does the Berlin Philharmonic. Bohm always seems to pick the right tempo, never too fast but not too slow either. The perfect example is the opening of the 39th, where Bohm revels in creating a big engulfing sound during the slow introduction; however as soon as the allegro kicks in, tempi and tones have a spring in their step. For me, this is one of the great versions of the 39th, even in spite of a few sloppy moments in the latter movements. He submits an excellent 35th and 36th, again with moderate tempi but wonderfully Mozartean phrasing, somewhat surprising since when Bohm recorded these, "Period Instruments" weren't even a twinkle in Harnoncourt's eye, and "Romantic" readings were all the rage for Mozart. Bohm's steadiness with these interpretations is only matched by his ear for detail; better, say, than Marriner, who is unquestionably steady, but whose readings lack spontenaity, and more consistent than Szell, whose 40th is one of the great readings, but whose 39th falls flat and whose brass/woodwinds can't handle their increased role in the Jupiter symphony.
Considering the age of these recordings (early- to mid-60s), they also sound remarkably clean and clear, and all of the parts can easily be heard; although I would credit Bohm with some of this as he was always excellent at creating space and keeping all of Mozart's many layers exposed to the listener. I have a number of different accounts of Mozart's last six symphonies (Marriner, Bernstein, Karajan, Szell 35, 39-41, Mackerras), but pound for pound, this one is the best. If you still aren't happy with the versions you own, this set may be your stopping point.

Radiant performances!.......2007-02-03

The Symphony No. 41 in C major Kv 551 best known as Jupiter retakes and maintains the most representative epic spirit of Mozart like any one Symphony. It breaths liberty, Dionysian pleasure and that essential rapture so common in the masterpieces. And under Bohm's baton exudates full aristocratic sound.

In spite of the fact it has been recorded so many times, just a few directors have been able to extract and carve in relief the majestic splendor of this K.

On the other hand the version of the 38th Symphony is simply majestic and radiant. Bohm never abuses of excess of elegance and his pristine lyricism may be easily realized.

Karl Bohm was indeed, one of the most representative Ambassadors of the Mozart symphonic repertoire. The Berlin Philharmonic, fortunately still maintained the noble sound inherited from Furtwangler and then Fricsay and that was a decisive fact to his favor.

Wonderful Sound Quality and Precision .......2006-03-24

Precision. That is what comes to my mind when listening to a Karl Bohm interpretation of Mozart. Mozart's final symphonies are ageless masterpieces of music. Anyone can recognize the opening Allegro moto of Symphony No. 40 in G-Minor (one of Mozart's only symphonies in a minor key). Just finding a collection with these wonderful symphonies is a great find.

As to the sound quality, Deutsch Gramophone spent extra time and resources into reissuing these originally analog recordings. It is nice to be able to hear every woodwind in balance and the string sections in their glory. The sound does not seem forced or artificial and the quality is absolutely superb.

These recordings were completed during the height of Bohm's time as a conductor. His interpretations are truly "viennese" in that tempos and structure are very precise and meticulous. Some may think his tempi are slow or plodding, but they offer a very nice interpretation that perhaps was accepted in Mozart's era. The 35th, 39th, and 41st symponies in the set are my favorites.

I would also suggest looking at George Szell's performances with the Cleveland Orchestra, for they offer a different interpretation but are also superb.

Other than Bruno Walter's.......2006-01-21

Columbia SO recordings (NOT with the New York PO) , which are OOP, this Bohm is the one to have, the only one you need actually. As I've heard at least 6 other major conductors, Klemperer , Mackerraas, both Levine's etc etc.
The only 2 I kept are the Walter ,got mine from a used cd dealer in the UK online :-) and the Bohm, complete sym set, which is the way to go for Mozart fans. There's quite a few very good syms in the 1-34.
All that stuff you read about Bohm being a "kapplemiester" (germanic style/cold), old fashioned, tutonic, is very misleading. I hear nothing of the sort and wish these comments would stop.
Though I was forwarned about Bohm being off track in approach with his german orch, I sense there is some anti-german sentiments in these negative comments about Bohm. None of this criticism leveled against Bohm is factual, only a prejudice in their minds.

As to
Details, tempos, instrument quality, sound quality, orch size all are in perfect harmony with Mozart.
. Bohm and the Berlin show forth a understanding of Mozart that none except Walter can rival.
The Klemper/Philharmonia on TESTAMENT, not the EMI release(which are duds) are not too bad, but not in the same category as either Bohm or Walter.
I sat down one day and compred all 3, and concluded the Klemperer were not necessary , for sound issues and also not on par with Bohm's definitive recording.

EDIT: I should mention that i read on a forum recently, he recalled Bohm from his vinyl set that the performances were 'a bit dull". Bohm does not speed read. Any conductor that takes Mozart too fast is doing a disservice to these richly detailed scores. Mozart requires detailed attention, which is what Bohm brings. Yet the life is there, not dull at all.
EDIT on Feb 21/07...
Mackerras' Prague is not in the same league as the Berlin. Many of the soloists in this Berlin use instruments that bring out a chamber flaor, and also Bohm kept the orch smaller than many other orch's. This smaller chamber sound brings more to Mozart than many other recodings I;'ve heard. Even Walter's Columbia is "big sound", yet Walter's does present a "Mozartian" image. Bohm goes even further. Many other like conductors record Mozart with a "Beethovenian" sound. That us large orch/heavy/darker.

Efficient interpretations and lovely playing, but there's more to Mozart.......2005-09-25

I can see someone admiring these recordings, since they are very well executed and crisply presented, with no major flaws. And I can see why Mozart was considered one of Karl Bohm's best composers if you like his foursquare, unsmiling approach. Apparently many other listeners and reviewers don't demand more than what this bargain set of the last six symphonies delivers.

But Bohm's traditional Teutonic conducting sounds pretty limited to me, not because of the "authentic" movement now in vogue but because great Mozart conducting must be joyous, light on its feet, and full of wit and alertness. Bohm is brisk and efficient instead. Bruno Walter was born even earlier than Bohm, and yet he got all those things right. That's why I return to him again and again, not to this set, much as I love the Berlin Phil.

For those who want the most remembered passages of classical music's best-loved works, here's a package for you. On this bargain priced double-CD, you'll find music from 40 different classical composers; for the most part, the recordings excerpted here are some of the very best. Of course, you only get one Bach sampling (Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, played by the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra) and one Mozart (A Little Night Music conducted by Herbert von Karajan), but this is still a nice collection--perhaps the starting point for a budding collection of classical music. This set's downfall? Unfortunately, though the liner notes discuss the evolution of classical music chronologically, the tracks are programmed in alphabetical order by composer's last name. This makes for some startling transitions! Emil Gilels's reflective performance of the Adagio from Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata is followed by the crashing cymbals and bombast of Carmen's "March of the Toreadors," a recipe for a heart attack if there ever was one. Still, there's something here for everyone and the liner notes even explain what movies this music can be found in. A nice touch. --Jason Verlinde

Watch out for the volume leveling mentioned in another review. Surely the compliers could have come up with a better sort order than by composer. The change in tempo/volume between pieces makes it impossible to enjoy. My two CD's ended up in the trash.

Great Music Compilation.......2005-08-15

This is a great CD full of many songs that you will recognize and enjoy. If you are someone who likes classical music but doesn't necessarily know which songs or which composers you like, then this CD is for you. You will likely recognize many of the songs as the classical songs you would have picked out to be your favorites.

If you like classical music don't buy this CD........2005-03-11

Most of the tracks were chopped down to 3-4 minutes so some of the best parts of the compositions are missing. I don't know what I was thinking trying to buy 40 classical songs on two CD's. If you really want to enjoy the music you would do better to purchase a CD with fewer, but better quality tracks.

A must for anyone wanting the staples of classical music.......2005-02-23

In my years of experience teaching Fine Arts to high school students, I know that the majority, if not all, of the music included on this album is commonly used in collge music appreciation courses. This is an excellent sample of truly all the "greatest hits" of classical music. My students enjoy listening to the music and have later told me when take their required music apreciation courses in college that they "already know it all" because of this CD! The recordings are clear, the selections are passionate, and the listener will gain a familiarity with all of the most commonly heard classical music used in tv commercials, movies, etc.
I recommend this album, along with the boxed set, "Age of the Classics" for anyone who is interested in becoming familiar with the most famous staples of classical music.

A great compilation.......2005-02-09

This cd somes up some of the greatest pieces of instrumental (and is some cases choral) music ever written. It is a great starter for a beginning classical music lover or a quick and easy all-in-one for those of us who study classical music for a living. I highly recommend this cd to anyone who wants to love or already does love classical music.

Great compilation of Mozart!.......2007-01-12

If you want to get the best of Mozart with a fabulous composer than this cd is the one for you. I am not a music critic, just a biology major who studies well listening to these classics -- they really help keep me focused!! Awsome symphonies at a great price -- what could be better?!?!

Good collection.......2006-12-21

I particularly found Symphonies 25 and 40 to be very nice to listen to. The the rest of them I found to be ok, maybe since I am not a big fan of classical music. I bought this cd because I went to a symphony that played Mozart no. 25 which I enjoyed very much. Hence I decided to try out his other compositions.

Retrograde Mozart with undeniable heart.......2005-12-04

Leonard Bernstein thought that every composer was a romantic because he was. These big, heart-on-sleeve performances of Mozart's great late symphonies use the Vienna Phil. at almost full force--they could slip into the Brahms First without adding personnel. Bernstein lived long enough to theoretically be influenced by the period-instrument movement, but his allegiance never shifted. He belongs with Karajan and Bohm as the last conductors for whom Mozart should sound "important."

At its best, this approach yields romantic depth, perhaps not what Mozart intended but valid in its way. I would rather listen to Bernstein's Mozart symphonies than Karajan's (tending to be slick and glossy, although better than reputed) or Bohm's (brisk and faceless). A new listener should know in advance that the slow movements will be expressively drawn out and the minuets often slow and heavy-footed (these dancers are wearing boots). But Bernstein believes in this music, and he is always genuine. That ocunts for a lot with a composer who used to be played as if he were a porcelain doll and is now too often played as if his divine music were written by a Roccoco computer. Four stars.

Mozart: The Great Late Symphonies.......2004-06-16

What a great album we have here. Leonard Bernstein conducts the later symphonies of Mozart, which are considered to be his most mature and his greatest works for full orchestra. This album is worth the price and a treasure to own for your extensive classical music collection. If you appreciate classical music, you'll truly enjoy this album. Everyone knows that Leonar Bernstein ranks among one of the best conductors of the 20th century, right up there with the great names of Herbert Von Karajan, Bruno Walter, Sir Neville Marriner, all who have held their own when it comes to Mozart's music. Karajan I feel is not quite as good when it comes to Mozart's symphonic works. Bruno Walter and Sir Neville Marriner have long surpassed Karajan in the area of Mozart symphonies. Indeed, if you get the chance be sure to check out symphonies conducted by either Bruno Walter or Sir Neville Marriner. Marriner and the Acadamy Of Saint Martin In The Fields did mostly Mozart and provided the music of the 1984 Milos Forman film Amadeus.

The reason this album is so good is Leonard Bernstein conducting. As a conductor and a musically atuned soul, he seems to really interpret these symphonies perfectly. He gets Mozart. He has captured every note, every vibrato, roulade, flowing lines and bouncy but balanced joy in every allegro movement, such as the first movement of the Prague Symphony No. 38. For contrast, he understood the substance and darkness that seems to be written into the Allegro of the Symphony No. 25. The first movement is meant to sound furious, anguished and complex, and fast in a darker sort of mood. It's one of those rare moments in which Mozart foreshadows the Romantic Era that would begin with Beethoven. Mozart would also do this with the andante of his 21st piano concerto and the opening movement of the Piano Concerto No. 20. The last symphonies 40 and 41, "Haffner" and "Jupiter" are regarded as Mozart's most mature works for the symphony. The orchestra is more panoramic and produces a less lighter texture. The music is a fully developed Mozart in his later years. The Jupiter is his grandest. Its name conjures up the vastness of the planet Jupiter or the majesty of the Roman god Jupiter. Get this album if you're a fan of Mozart and a fan of the conductor Leonard Bernstein who aptly conducted the New York Philharmonic for many years and the Berlin Philharmonic towards the end of his life.

The best bargain on the market.......2004-03-24

The new Trio series has to be one of the most welcome and affordable additions to the classical music market. This set shows why. For a budget price one can get pretty much all of Mozart's best loved symphonies, in some of the most highly regarded performances made of them. Bernstein's lush, relaxed, and very romantic interpretations may not be for all tastes, especially those who have become used to period style. But for those who feel Mozart would have preferred his music performed with the warmth and beauty that is missing from the rather cold, analytical period interpretations that have become the norm, these are for you. I cannot recommend this set more highly.

The best period instrument Mozart symphony cycle around.......2005-11-24

Trevor Pinnock and the English Concert turn in the best period instrument Mozart Symphony cycle around. With 20-30 players, the English Concert sounds full and rich, and are so well recorded, one could mistake them for a modern instrument chamber orchestra augmented with more players for a bigger sound. The early symphonies employ fewer players, the symphonies from about No. 20 and following call for more players, in some cases trumpets, horns and timpani in addition to the usual strings, harpsichord, flutes, oboes, and bassoon.

Pinnock chooses perfect tempos for the English Concert: allegros are spritely, but not driven and there's never a sense that the musicians are having trouble keeping up at Pinnock's tempos. Andante movements sing with the cantabile quality Mozart is famous for, and are always musical and flowing: very beautiful.

I am not a big fan of period instrument Mozart. I have heard Hogwood and the Academy of Ancient Music (L'Oiseau Lyre) in Mozart Symphonies 34, 38, 39, and 41 and that's enough to give me a sense that Pinnock is superior - more confident, and better recorded - to Hogwood in this music. Haydn's symphonies seem to work better with period instruments than do Mozart's, but Pinnock and the English Concert have a special musical quality which MAKE Mozart work with a period orchestra. Incidentally, both Pinnock and Hogwood have recorded very fine Haydn Symphonies with their respective orchestras.

I have also read, in AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE (July/August 2005 issue) in a review of the Mozart Symphonies with Linden/Mozart Academy of Amsterdam, a period orchestra (Brilliant Classics set) that Pinnock's Mozart cycle is to be preferred. I have not heard Linden myself, but ARG's review states that with the exception of Symphonies 20, 39, 40, and 41, Pinnock "wins across the board." The reviewer cites sour tuning, below standard pitch, sloppy playing, not enough contrasts of dynamic range and pokey allegros, as liabilites which are especially annoying in Linden's cycle, and advises the reader to go with Pinnock if looking for a period cycle of Mozart symphonies.

Other options? Bohm/Berlin Philharmonic (DG); Krips/Concertgebouw (for Symphonies 21-41, Philips); Hans Graf/Mozarteum Orchestra, Salzburg (Capriccio); and Nicholas Ward/Northern Chamber Orchestra, modern instrument chamber orchestra (for early symphonies, Naxos). But unless you really hate period instruments, you will like Pinnock, as I do, and as I stated earlier: I am not a fan of period instrument Mozart.

The best period orchestra Mozart symphonies around!.......2005-08-23

Trevor Pinnock and the English Concert perform Mozart's symphonies with great style, elan, and spirit, making this the best period orchestra Mozart Symphonies around. Pinnock deals alot in contrasts and atmosphere, setting a mood for each movement, within each symphony. The English Concert plays even Mozart's earliest symphonies-written when he was a pre-teen-as great music, and it works, very effectively. Allegros bristle with spirit, Andantes and Adagios emphasize cantabile (singing style) as all Mozart's music has a vocal/singing emphasis (in contrast to Haydn or Beethoven, who tend to build movements arount motives, or rhythmic patterns of notes; Mozart emphasizes melody moreso in many of his works).

I am not a fan of period instruments in music of Haydn, Mozart, and any composers after Bach and Handel, but this cycle is really fine. My favorite Mozart Symphonies have been Karl Bohm/Berlin Philharmonic (complete cycle, DG); 21-41 by Joseph Krips/Concertgebouw Orchestra (Philips, coupled with Marriner/Academy of St. Martin in the fields for 1-20); Bruno Walter/New York Philharmonic for Symphonies 25,28,29,35,36,38-41 (Sony); Otto Klemperer/Philharmonia for Symphonies 36,38-41 (EMI). But, Pinnock's accounts are spirited and the English Concert, at about 20-25 players, doesn't sound scrawny or ineffective at all. If you're used to the sonority of the Berlin Philharmonic or Philharmonia Orchestra, this will take some getting used to, but it is very good.

This could be called "period instrument Mozart for those who don't like period instruments." I have heard Christopher Hogwood/Academy of Ancient Music in Symphonies 34,38,39,41, and they are not as good as Pinnock's accounts. Hogwood's orchestra sounds small, puny compared with Pinnock's more robust group. I am not meaning to degrade Hogwood, as I have a number of fine recordings of his: Beethoven Symphonies 1,2;
Handel's MESSIAH; Haydn Symphonies 94, 96; Boyce Opus 6 Symphonies. But in Mozart Symphonies, I prefer Pinnock.

Pinnock's set is also well recorded, adding to it's high quality. You can't go wrong with these, unless you absolutely hate period instruments.

A Beautiful Time Capsule.......2005-04-08

In comparing this recording, with its use of original instruments, and my favorite recordings with modern instruments, I find I prefer this. It doesn't lose any power, but it gains by the imaginative process of listening to the music as Mozart would have heard it. The collection is also a wonderful way to listen to the progression of Mozart's music throughout his life. As you listen to the first two of the eleven discs, you'll be amazed at the symphonies he wrote when he was only nine years old!

Another BBB (basically bland Brit) recording.......2005-04-06

This is a short review because when you've heard one of these you've heard them all. They're all played in the same starched, stiff mannor, with brisk tempi, little feeling, no shaping of phrase, and no color. The Mozart symphonies--the latter ones, anyway--have their own style and merit different approaches (No. 31, the "Paris," is almost curtain-raiser music for an opera buffa, for example, while No. 39 is in some ways proto-Beethoven, harmonically sharing a good deal with the "Eroica," and No. 40 shows Mozart heading into a realm of a basically Romantic chromaticism that would have led to much fascinating music if he'd lived longer and written more in that style). Yet here all the works are played interchangably. These are performances that could have been generated on a computer.

The sound is excellent, but that's about all there is to recommend this set. Hogwood's traversal on period instruments has more personality, believe it or not. And to really show what can be done with works like these on HIP instruments, try Franz Bruggen's remarkable recordings of the Haydn symphonies on Philips. I can't recommend this set, and I got it for considerably less than the Amazon price, too.

Pinnock excellent, DG Archiv sound variable.......2005-02-18

I greatly admire Pinnock's style, directing skill and harpsichord playing, but I don't understand the variability of sound balance achieved on his many recordings by DG. Most are recorded in Henry Wood Hall and have the same "tonmeister" and producers. For example his recording of the Bach Violin Concertos is vibrant, full bodied and has a great "presence", whereas on the other end of the spectrum, the last disc of the symphonies, 40 and 41, is really anemic, with pratically no bass. I gave them a +12db bass boost to try and compensate for the lack of bass, but there was hardly any difference in the low end response. In order to listen to this disc, and to some extent the prior two as well, I have reverted to my volume expander used with vinyl records from the 70's.

My system has very clean and deep bass response and handles Telarc organ recordings with great effect, so I do not believe it is that. And, as I stated the violin concertos have a great presence, to the point where I can visualize the bass and cello players bowing their instruments. It may be do to different microphone placement for the larger ensemble of the latter symphonies, without compensating for the different acoustic.

When it comes to Archiv's 4D recordings of the English Concert, I do not like them at all. The choir from the Mozart Coronation Mass sounds like it is being piped down from outer space, detached and way to ethereal. The Telemann suites do not fare any better, thin and anemic. Don't think the extended dynamic range and lower threshold noise level helped in any way.

I should also add that I have about every recording of Pinnock and the English Concert, really the best "Original Instruments Group" out there. In my humble opinion, Pinnock should have a "Sir" in front of his name.

Mozart Magic.......2007-03-11

Excellent recording quality as well as fine musical content makes this set a delight.

Great performance.......2006-10-29

Nowadays there are an increasing number of recordings of Mozart with original instruments. I think it is a valid procedure, but the traditional executions are still worth hearing. Being first-class works, Böhm and Karajan's recordings are the most easily available. Karajan's is more dynamic, a desirable quality of an execution of Mozart. Conducting the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Karajan returns to the composer with whom he began his career. It is a superb work.

Karajan conducts Mozart.......2006-07-25

Herbert Von Karajan's reading of these late Mozart symphonies respects the "small orchestra" feel of these pieces while expressing the drama they contain with his signature "big orchestra" sound.
Very worthy performances, especiallly the "Haffner".

Mozart's Late Symphonies.......2005-12-22

Mozart's late symphonies is music treasure and should be appreciated by any classical music lover. I have two favorite versions of these works. One is conducted by Karajan, the other is by Sir Charles Mackerras.

To make comparison, the highly praised Mackerras's interpretation does not necessarily beat Karajan's. Take No. 39 for example, I think Karajan's interpretation is better. Mackerras's is somewhat too fast and Karajan's rhythm is dance-like and quite appropriate. However, Mackerras's No. 40 is more impressive. Karajan's No. 41 is grand and Mackerras's is stylic. Karajan's first movement of No. 38 is more exciting than Mackerras's.

Karajan is an essential Salzburg Austrian and breathed Mozart's music air since child. His Mozart is one of the most Mozartean: Style, singing and dance-like rhythm, which are fully expressed in these CDs. The sound of 70's Berlin Philharmonic is perfect.

A nice disc at a good price........2005-09-24

I think the Bohm set is better, but I really like Karajan's interpretations. I am a fan of "big-band" versions of Mozart's late symphonies, and if you are too, this is a pretty good set. However, I feel like there are better versions of each symphony available on other recordings (i.e. Bohm's 36th, Bernstein's 39th). Still, this set sounds amazing with the new original bit image processing, with outstanding "space" in between each piece of the orchestra. And, since I am a sucker for Karajan, even when he hams up a Classical Era symphony, I simply couldn't resist. There are better versions, but as a cycle it is an enjoyable 2-disc set.

These were always fine performances of Mozart's last five symphonies (Nos. 36 and 38-41; Michael Haydn wrote his 37th) and they stand up wonderfully. Marriner was never an over-Romanticizer, and even here, with a pretty-good-sized band of modern instruments, the touch is thoroughly "Mozartean," without being at all fussy. In other words, this is a very classy set--tempi and emphasis are never less than ideally judged, and there's energy to spare. What a buy! --Robert Levine

Two-and-a-half stars...Bland and anonymous.......2002-07-10

I was truly surprised how bland I found these performances. They're not really "bad," and there's nothing to object, to, but I almost wish they were so I could have a reaction, any reaction. Despite his reputation for being a "Mozart Specialist," I don't feel Neville Marriner gets to the bottom of these works. Tempi are average-to-slow (the intro to the Prague is particularly cumbersome, but oddly the rest of that movement is among the disc's highlights, with strong, solid, dramatic build) and phrasing is, well, almost nonexistent. None of the players has a distinct sound, balances are string-forward and woodwind-weak. Sound is excellent, though, in the best Philips tradition; performances mostly span the 70s decade. But the biggest problem is Marriner here: I feel he is so intent on having every hair in place that he doesn't say anything. There's no pathos in the G minor, nor zeal in the Linz, nor majesty in the Jupiter. This is Mozart-by-the-numbers, without tension, that feeling of discovery, that the musicians are experiencing the music as they play it. Except for the Prague, not worth keeping, and maybe not even then. To hear these symphonies in their glory, hear Furtwangler, Bernstein, Erich Kleiber, Walter, Kubelik, Blomstedt, heck, even Mackerras ain't bad compared to this, and I used to think he was somewhat bland.

Ditto Robert Levine.......2001-06-04

I am greatly enjoying this purchase. The Amazon reviewer hits the nail on the head: very classy. I appreciate the balance of the recording, with the winds right up there with the strings, and the whole effect never too dense. I haven't heard the Bohm/Berlin set that others have spoken of, but I have compared the 38 and 39 on this set to a Bohm/Vienna disk I own which is very good and the Marriner performances are overall more enjoyable.

Excellent!.......2000-10-13

This is an excellent buy. The ASMF proves to be an outstanding Mozart-orchestra. Symphonies no. 36 and 40 are among my favorite symphonies now. The only downside is the break-up of Symphony 39, but despite that, I really recommend this one!

MOZART COMES THROUGH.......1998-11-18

I couldn't believe it when I got this recording from Amazon. A mix of an excellent performance and first-class recording quality make this one of the best Mozart purchases I've ever made. The winds come through brilliantly, and it was as if I was hearing the Prague symphony for the first time. While the G minor is a little restrained for my taste, it is nonetheless an excellent performance, with all the balance and control necessary for Mozart. The E-flat, one of my favorites, is breathtaking. It is rare to hear a conductor respect the score as much as Marriner, and remarkable how much intensity and control the Academy has. Mozart comes through, taking precedence over the conductor and the performers. We often get wrapped up in the performance or conducting, but in these recordings we are aware of only one thing: Mozart's genius.

Amazon.com essential recording

This was the set that really got the "authentic instrument" craze going. It was a big, ambitious project that promised a fresh look at familiar music, as well as lots of exciting new discoveries. Christopher Hogwood tailored his forces to match what we know of the actual size and constitution of the orchestras of the period, and since Mozart wrote symphonies in every country in Europe, including England, France, Italy, Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia, the result is practically a blueprint of 18th-century orchestral practice. Then everyone else got into the act, and these performances sort of fell off the musical map. Listening to them again, one finds they hold up rather well. There's still the sense of discovery, and of course the music itself is glorious. At budget price, this is history in sound. --David Hurwitz

The original, original instrument take.......2007-05-03

A few months ago I bought the Trevor Pinnock Mozart Complete Symphonies (11 cds) and the 250th Anniversary Edition Mozart Symphonies (8 cds) that is not quite a complete symphony cycle. The Anniversary Edition features Harnoncourt on about 5 of the 8 discs. I also have his two CD twofers that cover the early symphonies. So, I more or less ended up with two complete renditions of Mozart's symphonies. I first bought the Harnoncourt early symphony 2fer and enjoyed it enough to buy volume two. This led me to buy the 250 Anniversay 8 cd set. I have not in the least regretted these purchases!

Harnoncourt is the most radical of these three original instrument takes on Mozart, especially in the late symphonies. For example, listen to symphony 29 by each of these three sets and compare them to the Karl Bohm benchmark 29th. Harnoncourt is Ricky Racer and Bohm is Mr. Serene and Majestic.

Obviously, price is only one of the factors in buying. The AAM costs more but has almost twice the music. The AAM set is probably the more collectable since they got there first. This set was issued in multiple lp boxes way back when and I recently watched just one of these boxes, unopened, go for over 80 bucks at EBAY.

There really is quite a sound difference between modern and original instruments. Rhapsody has the Mozart Horn Concertos posted by the AAM using an apparently valveless horn. Listen to this very squeaky rendition and compare it to Brain's to get a feel for the difference. They also have the Philips Complete Mozart Piano Concerto box that features a pianoforte on disc one of concertos 1 to 4. This instrument sounds more like a harpsichord than a piano and took some adjusting to get used to. The Smithsonian put out on vinyl (circa 1980) The Six Brandenburg Concerti by Bach on original instruments. The booklet gives quite a bit of info on the differences in instruments between modern and original. Here are a few snippets: "The brass instruments were, until the 19th century, valveless." This reduced the number of notes available. "The wind instruments of Bach's time had few keys--the transverse flute had one, the oboe two or three, and the bassoon three--calling for contrived fingerings to cover the full chromatic scale." "The music produced by a Baroque bow is characteristically tapered in shape, with great potential for a lively distinction between notes."

The bottom line for me is that Mozart, when well played, conducted, and recorded, sounds great--be it original instruments or modern. Having both modern and original choices is great. Life is wonderful with changes in flavor. I have only listened once to the AAM Mozart symphonies and have not done a compare and contrast between these and Pinnock's, etc. I was impressed by the consistency in performance and that being very good. It is really quite a feat to put out 19 cds and have them sound great from stem to stern. As an ADD recording, these give the DDDs a run for the money. The AAM Mozart Symphony cycle is posted at Rhapsody so you can look before you leap if you are in the market.

The most complete set of Mozart symphonies ever recorded.......2006-08-10

This massive 19 CD collection contains 71 symphonies!

Yes, all 41 of the usual symphonies are here, but another 27 symphonic works are presented, as well as alternative versions of symphonies Nos. 31, 35 & 40. The works are all recorded on period instruments (or modern copies of 18th century instruments) and the orchestra is accompanied throughout by harpsichord continuo. The sounds of the various sections of the orchestra are full of colour and character - the wind and brass players, in particular, make this set such a delightful one.

I also have the Pinnock recording, which contains only the standard 41 symphonies and it is every bit as good. I can really make up my mind which I prefer, although Pinnock's reading of symphony No. 40 is sublime - particularly in the beautiful slow movement. However, Hogwood and his Academy of Ancient Music play almost all these symphonies with great gusto and style. As another reviewer said, Hogwood allows his musicians to simply play the music and let Mozart's music live in a natural and "organic" way, with minimal interference from the conductor.

Each work tells a story and the recordings of these works remind us of the fact that Mozart wasn't some sort of proto-Beethoven, rather, his music was more like the culmination of many 18th century currents, trends and ideas - "Baroque music on steroids", even! ;-))

This is a set which is very close to my heart and I consider it one of the treasures in my home. I return to it often - at any time of the day or night.

Indispensable .......2004-11-13

This set is indispensable for anyone who seriously wants to have a complete Mozart collection. It contains every symphonic work written by Mozart, including second versions of certain late symphonies.

The playing is "alive" and fresh, the sound is full, warm and clear. What you get is not Hogwood's "interpretation"...but music and just the music, this guy understands Mozart and just lets these musicians play with joy, spontaneity, meaning and feeling. I didn't think they would be so good! There are times when you don't even notice that they're playing on period instruments.

This set is completely satisfying and I'm glad I own it. It's a pricy box set, but totally worth it...try to find it used and bask in the glory of Mozart.

Ok, but...........2004-06-30

I will qualify this review by saying that I have not by any means listened to every single symphony on this recording. I listened to several of the symphonies from this set for a conducting class, and spent a considerable amount of time comparing them with other recordings for phrase structure, dynamics, etc. My conclusion:

Overall, I am personally just not impressed by Hogwood. His handling of the phrases is rough, and the music just doesn't seem polished. Occasionally the balance is questionable (for example, several clarinet passages in the first movement of the 39th stick out), and at other points I get the impression that he put little planning into the organization of strong and weak bars. Perhaps it is mostly personal preference, but other conductors really do sound better.

I think that this recording has its place, as there are few boxed sets of all of Mozart's symphonies available, and certainly there was some groundbreaking period instrument work here. I would, however, strongly recommend that anyone considering purchasing this set actually obtain a copy first from a library to decide if this is really what they want.

A milestone set, and worthy of all praise.......2004-04-29

In the 1970s, the Hungarian conductor Antal Dorati recorded all of the 104 symphonies of Franz Joseph Haydn (Amazon asin # B0000042DP). The era of "epic" integral collections was ignited. Many thought the vast majority of Haydn's symphonies would be boring, cookie-cutter works rolled out in almost assembly-line fashion. But Dorati, with excellent help from the Haydn scholar H. C. Robbins Landon, would disprove all of that, and show that there is not a dud in the whole collection. And Dorati's readings have stood the test of time.

Dorati's achievement marked the beginning of an ea that in the next 2 decades would see complete integral sets of the works of every major composer, culminating ultimately in the 1980s with Phiips complete Mozart Edition.

Shortly after Dorati finished his massive project, the Academy of Ancient Music embarked on a complete traversal of all of the "symphonies" of Mozart on period instruments, the currently reviewed item. Not just the traditional 41, but also many lesser know works. More fascinating music was unearthed. But, the milestone of this set is not the discovery of forgotten masterpieces. That had become a common daily occurence. It was the period instrument movement instead that was set free by Hogwood's achievement. With this project, Hogwood did for period instruments what Dorati did for integral cycles of lesser known works. The period instrument movement had been around for a long time. But it never quite could hit "mainstream" until Hogwood made these recordings. And ever since, period instruments have flourished.

There are better recordings of many of the works in this set, both on period instruments and conventional instruments. But the consistency that runs through the set brings an appreciation for Mozart's Symphonies that is unparallelled.

Customer Reviews:

Great SACD-but breathing into the microphone????.......2003-11-19

The performance is impeccable and the fidelity of this SACD is excellent. Actually, there's so much detail you can hear someone (conductor, sound engineer?) constantly breathing into the microphone, which becomes really obnoxious during the more quiet parts of the performance (thus the 4 star rating).

Exemplary Mozart performance.......2002-01-18

George Szell's Mozart recordings are legendary, and this SACD verson presents a sampling of them in the best possible light. The previous reviewer was evidently referring to the Walter disc in this Sony series, but his remarks apply with equal force to this disc. The untampered DSD transfers preserve the aural profile of the master tapes and recreate faithfully the acoustic of Severance Hall -- a bit dry for some tastes, but allowing every strand of the musical texture to be heard. The transfer is so good you can ever hear pages being turned in unison and Szell audibly urging his forces on (e.g., in the finale to No. 40). Very highly recommended.

Charming & Splendid in every way.......2001-11-07

The performance and sonic of this SACD will make you sit still on your listening chair, especially if you're a real fan of Mozart's music. Very good microphone placement. The CD version in Bruno Walter: The Edition sounds dry, opaque and blocked up in comparison. On SACD, it's very integrated, liquid and lots of high frequency information, breath and air. You can have a sence of the recording location's space from wall to wall and from ceiling to floor. Recommended.
